I recently created a new website with super fun and cute Mama gear! It is called Mama at Home Designs and my goal for this brand was to be inspiring to all mothers out there while also spreading the love for God. My faith has helped me so much that I would love for it to help or heal others as well. I created this site through a third party production company called Printful. They are USA based and have high quality products. I love everything they print out for me and it lasts for years. I hope I inspire you all to keep pushing and overcome your challenges. Much Love!

I don't know what it is but when I walk into a fully clean and organized kitchen it just makes me feel so happy. The fun little knick knacks for decor make it even more exciting. The kitchen is the heart of the home and when having a gathering everyone always tends to gravitate to the kitchen. So let's make it beautiful!

Every time I watch one of my favorite shows on HGTV, Rock the Block, I see all the amazing items that Wayfair offers and seriously would love to revamp my place because of it. I feel like every persons inner design can easily come out with their stuff! Also a lot of it are reasonably priced so it is a win win all around. Mother's Day is just around the corner and summer fun will be here before we know it, let's make it super fun and stylish!

After finding out how scary toxic most cookware on the market is we were on the hunt for a much safer alternative. Le Creuset not only has high quality products made with the best materials but everything is SO BEAUTIFUL. Stainless is our favorite to cook with, however they offer enameled cast iron, stoneware, toughened non stick, non stick ceramic, and non stick metal bakeware. The colors they use are gorgeous and I truly feel with their products on your table will change the hosting game. Quick tip: sign up with your email to receive free shipping on your first order!

Let's face it, Etsy is like the handmade Amazon…what can you not find on there these days! There are so many talented people and interesting items on the site. I feel like we should support the hard working small businesses that have their products proudly for sale. So this list will be just a tip of the iceberg since Etsy is such a huge market but full of really fun finds. Everything from jewelry to sewing plans…of course my stuff thrown in there too haha….Don't forget Easter and Mother's Day is just around the corner, Etsy will have the perfect gifts! HAPPY SHOPPING!

This Easter I am channeling my inner healthy mama status and going all in on healthier options for the kiddos. No dyes, no bioengineered ingredients just finally a healthier holiday. ALSO we can't forget the most adorable outfits and fun activities for the fam. I hope this list helps you make this Easter the best one yet!

Let's face it, being able to be self reliant has become a majorly needed life skill. Being able to grow your own food and medicine is a game changer. Not only can you become the healthiest version of yourself, BUT if God forbid anything happens with our food supply you and your family will be safe with your new skill. Each state is different when it comes to growing crops, I live in NJ and we are not called the garden state for nothing. No matter what state you live in…go out to your backyard, or hey even your front, and survey the land. See where you can start your garden or put in a greenhouse or both!

After shopping at 2 separate Trader Joe’s for this haul, I have come to realize I definitely don’t shop here enough!! Everything I get nowadays I make sure I check the back for bad ingredients and nothing said bioengineered or artificial dyes. My husband and I were so happy, plus it is all at an amazing price. WIN WIN

I have been dabbling in a few different mediums when it comes to crafting and I think I may have found my newest favorite. I have made some serving trays, refinished bar stools, home decor, and made some pretty awesome Christmas trees so far. So proud of myself since I am self taught. There is an awesome store I discovered that is a woodworkers dream and they offer classes! Can't wait to share the tools I use and tools I am dreaming of with you!

I love to bake all year round BUT in the colder weather baking happens way more often. Between all the holidays and a constant sweet tooth, it seems like the oven never catches a break! We have also noticed making your own items instead of buying store bought it way more cost effective and healthy. These are some things that I have noticed are helpful in the kitchen and some fun kitchen gadgets that make baking even more enjoyable.

Getting healthy is a goal that everyone should always have. It is so important to keep a healthy lifestyle and diet to live a positive long life. So let’s start the new year off right, and I hope you enjoy all of my favorite healthy lifestyle habits!

The OG kitchen remodel list has done so well I figured it would be fun to make another one. I mean there are just SO many beautiful options that we needed a part 2 list. You will find paint colors, tile, and countertops in the bold or neutral sections, fun or safe wallpaper, and some really cool hardware or accents, and of course some flooring options. Enjoy! Let me know what you like most!

I think it is safe to say, if you see my lists you will understand my love for a certain holiday….CHRISTMAS! Here are some outfit ideas that will be categorized by color, the three colors that I think scream Christmas. Whether it is for a work party, family party, or the actual big day you will find something for every event. Happy shopping and Merry Christmas!

I don't know about you but when the cold fall and winter nights come around my favorite activity is to dress in my most comfortable clothes, throw a blanket on, cozy up on the couch, and watch a movie with the lights off and just a few accent lights lit for ambience. These options would be an epic movie night with the kids or a special date night with your significant other.

My youngest son is non-verbal autistic so finding anything fun related that he would be interested in is a challenge at times. Even trick or treating he could care less about or just doesn't understand what the night is about. However put him in a room or at an event with all of his favorite sensory toys, equipment, or games he is 100% all about. Honestly who wouldn't be?! Autism acceptance and knowledge is something that it seems like some places are starting to understand a little bit more, and I pray that it just continues to grow.

I am so grateful to live in the garden state. They say the soil here and the water is unlike any other state which helps to make it one of the best veggies, fruit…and pizza (hehe) states. There are SO many fun farms to choose from in NJ so finding one that is worth either the drive if you are far or the money (some can get expensive), this list will help. This is the most perfect time of the year to come to Jersey and enjoy the farm life it has to offer. Don't worry if you miss the Halloween craze, because the Christmas joy is just around the corner. Gorgeous scenery, amazing food, and the experience of hopping on a wagon ride to the middle of a field to pick your own is a beautiful core memory for the whole family.

For as far back as I can remember, I was always drawing, coloring or painting something. I have dabbled in many different mediums or ways to create art but good ole fashion painting is what I always seem to circle back to. It just always made me so incredibly happy, and they say you'll never work a day in your life if you do what you love. There are so many other outlets besides craft shows to have people purchase your creations. This list will help you if you want to expand your favorite hobby into possibly your new full time “job”.

Digital art is a huge growing industry, literally everything is either an app or online. Digital art can be photography, business essentials such as logos and business cards, advertising, social media posts, flyers etc. I have a bachelors degree in art and design so understanding balance and eye appeal is something that beginners do not really understand. Color theory, the correct style of fonts, and readability are huge factors that can make or break a digital design. Books can help you with this but also hands on learning with either a free class online or maybe even at a community college in your area. If you have any interest in digital design this list will help you get started with learning the correct way to become a digital artist.

I don't know what is more fun, the actual holiday itself or baking/cooking fun foods that everyone would LOVE! These super fun and cute recipes are also a great way to get picky little eaters to try some new things. If I had to pick I would say my favorite holiday is Christmas but Halloween is a very close second. So these super cool and easy recipes will make you be the talk of the classroom parties or work holiday parties. Enjoy! Comment if you try any!

Seriously though, who doesn't love the crockpot! Its so easy to just throw the ingredients in there and let it all simmer and merry together all day to literally a masterpiece. Its always considered for comfort food but don't forget it won't heat up the house in the summer! These are all fall recipes but the crockpot is so special I might just have to make a summer edition as well soon. Comment if you end up trying any of these! Because I am literally drooling as I make this list.

I don't know about you but Christmas is HANDS DOWN my most favorite time of the year. The beautiful snow, the hot coffee in hand, walking down the sidewalk looking at all of the magical Christmas lights and decorations, all of the fresh baked cookies, the mesmerizing instrumental music that brings you back to your childhood when everything was less stressful. The time of year where it seems that more miracles happen, and that no matter what you are going through you can still have an overwhelming comfortable feeling. Cape May NJ is a gorgeous place no matter what the time of year it is, but it is pure magic at Christmas time. While I was in college as a special trip we went to dinner and a show during the winter months and I had the most amazing time. I can't wait to take my kids this Christmas and create core memories with them.

I discovered this boutique on TikTok and I am so glad I did! They reached out to me and asked if I would like to be an ambassador and receive a discount code, obvi I said YES PLESASE. This is my unique code COURTNEY34480 and it can be used for 20% off any purchase. I am sure you will love their clothes as much as I do. Happy Shopping!

I know I know, Courtney yet another SHEIN list?! I am sorry but they have super cute good quality clothing for everyone in your family at amazing prices!! Not to mention everything you need like ever to live life basically LOL. If you have ever shopped on this site before, the reviews are EVERYTHING. This list is all of their top sellers, all with many great reviews. How could you go wrong?! Man I love shopping.

I remember reading the first book in 5th grade and I was HOOKED. I have seen all the movies a million times, and they never get old. So whenever I see anything Hogwarts I am in love. It is awesome that after all of these years Harry Potter is still going strong and is loved by many generations and more generations to come.

I have 3 kids, one step daughter who is 14, and 2 boys that are 6 and 4. We are therapists, doctors, chefs, personal drivers, teachers, coaches, maid the list goes on and on. So why not display it with some super cute Mama gear. Having the title of Mama is such an honor and privilege that I feel blessed to have every day. Here are some of my favorties and a few of my own designs as well.

Revamping a space can sometimes be challenging, there are just SO many options! Here is a list of my favorite ideas and designs that I think will help you in your decision making. Its so rewarding to see a space come to life again even if it is only a change of paint color. Like always, I keep it budget friendly and easy DIY ideas so it doesn't seem so overwhelming. Design ideas from wallpaper to light fixtures, you will find a little bit of everything in this list. Happy remodeling!

This list is full of my favorites, discovered new products that I literally added to cart while making this list, and all on the convenient location of Amazon. There are a couple in each category on the slightly pricer side but I only added them in there because I have used them and LOVEEE the product and think they are completely worth the money. Hope you find something you like!
